A comment on Tesla owners locked out of their cars after app stopped working. Parent comment
But this is not the case not just for Tesla but for most modern cars today. Not sure why you keep insisting this.
There is a backup method for modern electronic keyfobs (incuding Tesla cars) where you place it in a designated spot to start the car:

Nissan: https://youtu.be/lV_HLwlOS-8?t=54
Audi: https://youtu.be/4gq4L9IQO7U?t=85
Tesla S/X: https://youtu.be/0J1VbeDfQmg?t=64
Tesla Model 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xxCgtXEMVY
As you can see, it's not solely "wireless". In the Model 3 this is the default behavior. For both unlocking and starting if using the keycard.
If you can design a better system than the rest of the engineers in the auto industry combined, lets hear your idea.
